WARNING

SAFETYGUIDELINES

Fumes and GasesBecause of the variables involved in fume and gas generation from arc welding, cutting and allied processes (such as the welding process and electrode, the base metal, coatings on the base metal, and other possible contaminants in the air), we’ll have to treat the subject in a rather general way, lumping all but the more hazardous situations together. The precautions we describe will hold true for all arc welding processes.

The fume plume contains solid particles from the consumables, base metal, and base metal coating. For common mild steel arc welding, depending on the amount and length of exposure to these fumes, most immediate or short term effects are temporary, and include symptoms of burning eyes and skin, dizziness, nausea, and fever. For example, zinc fumes can cause metal fume fever, a temporary illness that is similar to the fl u.

Long-term exposure to welding fumes can lead to siderosis (iron deposits in the lungs) and may affect pulmonary function. Bronchitis and some lung fi brosis have been reported.

Some consumables contain certain compounds in amounts which may require special ventilation and/or exhaust. These Special Ventilation products can be identifi ed by reading the labels on the package. If Special Ventilation products are used indoors, use local exhaust. If Special Ventilation products are used outdoors, a respirator may be required. Various compounds, some of which may be in welding fume, and reported health effects, in summary, are:Barium: Soluble barium compounds may cause severe stomach pain, slow pulse rate, irregular heart beat, ringing of the ears, convulsions and muscle spasms. In extreme cases can cause death.

Cadmium also requires extra precautions. This toxic metal can be found on some steel and steel fasteners as a plating, or in silver solder. Cadmium fumes can be fatal even under brief overexposures, with symptoms much like those of metal fume fever. These two conditions should not be confused. Overexposure to cadmium can be enough to cause fatalities, with symptoms appearing quickly, and, in some circumstances, death a few days later.

Chromium: Chromium is on the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) and NTP (National Toxicology Program) lists chromium as posing a carcinogenic risk to humans. Fumes from the use of stainless steel, hardfacing and other types of consumables contain chromium and/ or nickel. Some forms of these metals are known or suspected to cause lung cancer in processes other than welding and asthma has been reported. Therefore, it is recommended that precautions be taken to keep exposures as low as possible. OSHA recently adopted a lower PEL (Permissible Exposure Limit) for chromium (see Supplement 3). The use of local exhaust and/or an approved respirator may be required to avoid overexposure.

Coatings on the metal to be welded, such as paint, may also contain toxic substances, such as lead, chromium and zinc. In general, it is always best to remove coatings from the base metal before welding or cutting.

Cobalt: Exposure to cobalt can cause respiratory disease and pulmonary sensitization. Cobalt in metallic form has been reported to cause lung damage.

Copper: Prolonged exposure to copper fume may cause skin irritation or discoloration of the skin and hair.

Manganese: Manganese overexposure may affect the central nervous system, resulting in poor coordination, diffi culty in speaking, and tremor of arms or legs. This condition is considered irreversible.

Nickel: Nickel and its compounds are on the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) and NTP (National Toxicology Program) lists as posing a carcinogenic risk to humans.

Silica: Crystalline silica is present in respirable dust form submerged arc fl ux. Overexposure can cause severe lung damage (silicosis).

Zinc: Overexposure to zinc (from galvanized metals) may cause metal fume fever with symptoms similar to the common fl u.

FUMES & GASES can be dangerous to your health• Keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and general area.• Keep your head out of the fumes.• Use enough ventilation or exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and

gases from your breathing zone and general area.


SAFETYGUIDELINES

The gases that result from an arc welding process also present potential hazard. Most of the shielding gases (argon, helium, and carbon dioxide) are non-toxic, but, as they are released, they displace oxygen in your breathing air, causing dizziness, unconsciousness, and death, the longer your brain is denied the oxygen it needs. Carbon monoxide can also be developed and may pose a hazard if excessive levels are present.

The heat and UV radiation can cause irritation to the eyes and lungs. Some degreasing compounds such as trichlorethylene and perchlorethylene can decompose from the heat and ultraviolet radiation of an arc. Because of the chemical breakdown of vapor-degreasing materials under ultraviolet radiation, arc welding should not be done in the vicinity of a vapor-degreasing operation. Carbon-arc welding, gas tungsten-arc welding and gas metal arc welding should be especially avoided in such areas, because they emit more ultraviolet radiation than other processes. Also, keep in mind that ozone and nitrogen oxides are formed when UV radiation passes through the air. These gases cause headaches, chest pains, irritation of the eyes, and an itchiness in the nose and throat.

There is one easy way to reduce the risk of exposure to hazardous fumes and gases: keep your head out of the fume plume! As obvious as this sounds, the failure to follow this advice is a common cause of fume and gas overexposure because the concentration of fume and gases is greatest in the plume. Keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and general area using natural ventilation, mechanical ventilation, fi xed or moveable exhaust hoods or local exhaust at the arc. Finally, it may be necessary to wear an approved respirator if adequate ventilation cannot be provided.

As a rule of thumb, for many mild steel electrode, if the air is visibly clear and you are comfortable, then the ventilation is generally adequate for your work. The most accurate way to determine if the worker exposure does not exceed the applicable exposure limit for compounds in the fumes and gases is to have an industrial hygienist take and analyze a sample of the air you are breathing. This is particularly important if you are welding with stainless, hardfacing or Special Ventilation products. All Oxford Alloys SDS have a maximum fume guideline number. If exposure to total fume is kept below that number, exposure to all fume from the electrode (not coatings or plating on the work) will be below the TLV.

There are also steps that you can take to identify hazardous substances in your welding environment. First, read the product label and safety data sheet for the electrode posted in the work place or in the electrode or fl ux container to see what fumes can be reasonably expected from use of the product and to determine if

special ventilation is needed. Secondly, know what the base metal is, and determine if there is any paint, plating, or coating that could expose you to toxic fumes and/or gases. Remove it from the metal being welded, if possible. If you start to feel uncomfortable, dizzy or nauseous, there is a possibility that you are being overexposed to fumes and gases, or suffering from oxygen defi ciency. Stop welding and get some fresh air immediately. Notify your supervisor and co-workers so the situation can be corrected and other workers can avoid the hazard. Be sure you are following these safe practices, the consumable labeling and SDS and improve the ventilation in your area. Do not continue welding until the situation has been corrected.

NOTE: The SDS for all Oxford Alloys consumables is available on Oxford Alloys’ website: www.oxfordalloys.com

Before we turn to the methods available to control welding fume exposure, you should understand a few basic terms:

Natural Ventilation is the movement of air through the workplace caused by natural forces. Outside, this is usually the wind. Inside, this may be the fl ow of air through open windows and doors.

Mechanical Ventilation is the movement of air through the workplace caused by an electrical device such as a portable fan or permanently mounted fan in the ceiling or wall.

Source Extraction (Local Exhaust) is a mechanical device used to capture welding fume at or near the arc and fi lter contaminants out of the air.

The ventilation or exhaust needed for your application depends upon many factors such as:• Workspace volume• Workspace confi guration• Number of welders• Welding process and current• Consumables used (mild steel, hardfacing, stainless, etc.)• Allowable levels (TLV, PEL, etc.)• Material welded (including paint or plating)• Natural airfl ow

Your work area has adequate ventilation when there is enough ventilation and/or exhaust to control worker exposure to hazardous materials in the welding fumes and gases so the applicable limits for those materials is not exceeded. See the SDS for the legal limits, the OSHA PEL (Permissible Exposure Limit), and the recommended guideline, the ACGIH TLV (Threshold Limit Value), for many compounds found in welding fume.


VentilationThere are many methods which can be selected by the user to provide adequate ventilation for the specifi c application. The following section provides general information which may be helpful in evaluating what type of ventilation equipment may be suitable for your application. When ventilation equipment is installed, you should confi rm worker exposure is controlled within applicable OSHA PEL and/or ACGIH TLV. According to OSHA regulations, when welding and cutting (mild steels), natural ventilation is usually considered suffi cient to meet requirements, provided that:1. The room or welding area contains at least 10,000

cubic feet (about 22 in x 22 in x 22 in) for each welder.2. The ceiling height is not less than 16 feet.3. Cross ventilation is not blocked by partitions, equipment,

or other structural barriers.4. Welding is not done in a confi ned space.

Spaces that do not meet these requirements should be equipped with mechanical ventilating equipment that exhausts at least 2000 CFM of air for each welder, except where local exhaust hoods or booths, or air-line respirators are used.

Important Safety Note:When welding with electrodes which require special ventilation such as stainless or hardfacing (see instructions on container or SDS) or on lead or cadmium plated steel and other metals or coatings which produce hazardous fumes, keep exposure as low as possible and below exposure limit values (PEL and TLV) for materials in the fume using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. In confi ned spaces or in some circumstances, for example outdoors, a respirator may be required if exposure cannot be controlled to the PEL or TLV. (See SDS) Additional precautions are also required when welding on galvanized steel.

SAFETYGUIDELINES

Electric Shock Can Kill YouDo not touch live electrical parts. To avoid electric shock, follow the recommended practices listed below. Faulty installation, improper grounding, and incorrect operation and maintenance of electrical equipment can be sources of danger.1. Ground all electrical equipment and the work piece.

Prevent accidental electrical shocks. Connect power supply, control cabinets, and work piece. to an approved electrical ground. The work lead is not a ground lead. It is used to complete the welding circuit. A separate connection is required to ground the work, or the work lead terminal on the power supply may be connected to ground. Do not mistake the work lead for a ground connection.

2. Use the correct cable size. Sustained over-loading will cause cable failure and result in possible electrical shock or fi re hazard. Work cable should be the same rating as the torch cable.

3. Make sure all electrical connections are tight, clean and dry. Poor electrical connections can become over heated and even melt. They can also cause poor welds and produce dangerous arcs and sparks. Do not allow water, grease or dirt to accumulate on plugs, sockets or electrical units.

4. Moisture and water can conduct electricity. To prevent shock, it is advisable to keep work areas, equipment and clothing dry at all times. Fix water leaks immediately. Make sure that you are well insulated. Wear dry gloves, rubber-soled shoes, or stand on a dry board or platform.

5. Keep cables and connectors in good condition. Improper or worn electrical connections can cause short circuits and can increase the chance of an electrical shock. Do not use worn, damaged or bare cables.

6. Avoid open-circuit voltage. Open circuit voltage can cause electric shock. When several welders are working with arcs of different polarities or when using multiple alternating current machines, the open-circuit voltages can be additive. The added voltages increase the severity of the shock hazard.

7. Wear insulated gloves when adjusting equipment. Power should be shut off and insulated gloves should be worn when making any equipment adjustment to assure shock protection.

8. Follow recognized safety standards. Follow the recommendations in American National Standard Z49.1, Safety in Welding and Cutting, available from the American Welding Society, 550 N. W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126, and also the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, which is available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

9. Cylinders must be kept out of the welding circuit to prevent arc burns on the cylinder.


STORAGE &HANDLING

Coated ElectrodesSTORING COATED ELECTRODES Oxford Alloy® coated electrodes may be stored for several years in their original hermetically sealed packaging provided the packages remain unopened and are stored in a dry area at room temperature (72°F; 22°C) minimum. Once the container is opened and electrodes used for a time period less than several hours, the container should be stored in a dry rod oven maintained at a temperature range of 300° F to 400°F (150-205°C). Once left out of a controlled environment, the electrode fl ux may absorb moisture at an uneven rate, leading to fi nger nailing or uneven burn-off of the electrode during use. Reconditioning will restore optimal welding characteristics to the electrodes.

(1)Pre-dry for 1-2 hours.

MIG & TIGSTORING MIG & TIGOxford Alloy® bare wire for GMAW process is packed by sealing in plastic bags then boxed. Bare wires for GTAW process are packed in sealed tubes, and then boxed. The packaged wire should be stored in a dry area at room temperature (72°F; 22°C) minimum. If TIG & MIG fi ller metals are stored in their original packaging with no breach of the protection, the storage time may be several years.

Note: If the above conditions are not met, the storage time is reduced to no more than 6 months.

Handling of Wires out of the PackageThe following minimum precautions should be taken to safeguard the wire after opening the original package:1. It is recommended to use wires within one week of opening the original package.2. Open wires should not be exposed to damp moisture conditions or extremes in temperature and/or humidity where

surface condensation can occur.3. When not in use, wires should be placed in original packaging and sealed as best as possible.

Special Precautions for copper coated MIG & TIGIt is advisable to dispose of any wire that has visible signs of rust on the wire where the package integrity has been compromised. When proper storage procedures are not followed, consumables may show signs of high moisture. High moisture can result in rough bead surface or slag that is unusually diffi cult to remove. In addition, it can also result in visible and/or internal porosity in the weld deposit, increase spatter, and decreased puddle control which can increase chances of slag entrapment. Oxidation (rust) of either the surface of the wire or internal fl uxing agents increases the oxygen content of the wire that can lead to changes in alloy recovery. This, in turn, can deteriorate the mechanical properties of the weld metal.


STORAGE &HANDLING

Flux core wireSTORING FLUX CORE WIRE Flux core wire should be stored in the original, unopened packaging until ready to use. To maintain the integrity of these products, fl ux core wire must be protected from the atmosphere. All fl ux cored wire, regardless of package, should be protected from condensation, including rain or snow. To ensure that condensation does not form on the product, it is recommended that the electrode be stored in an environment that is kept above the dew point temperature for a given relative humidity. Minimizing temperature variation will also help to protect the electrode from moisture condensation. It is advisable to maintain turnover in inventory to ensure the product is as close to the manufactured condition as possible.

As a general rule maximum storage time for welding consumables is estimated to be 3 years. This estimate is for material in the original, undamaged packages that is stored indoors at up to ~70% relative humidity and that are protected from the weather or other adverse conditions. Packages should be stored under conditions that minimize the likelihood of temperature variations that cause moisture condensation on the consumables.

These estimates are based on what we know about the packaging materials and the frequency of product improvements. Since actual storage conditions vary widely across geographical regions and from one customer to another, it is not possible to be more specifi c. For packages that are not hermetically sealed, a shorter storage time is advisable under sustained severe humidity conditions but is not possible to estimate. Note that product stored for longer than 3 years, may still be suitable for use. It depends on the product and the condition it is in.

Re-Drying & Recycling FluxOxford Alloys submerged arc welding fl ux can be used directly from its original, undamaged package, if it has been stored according to the conditions listed in the chart above.

When proper procedures are not followed, fl ux may show signs of moisture. These can include porosity, a rough bead surface or slag that is unusually diffi cult to remove. In many instances these fl uxes can be re-dryed in general welding applications.

Re-Drying FluxTo re-dry fl uxes • Remove fl ux from its original packaging and place in a clean oven set between 260°-480°C (500°-900°F).• Leave in oven long enough to raise the temperature of the entire bulk of fl ux to your set temperature for a minimum of

one hour.• For ovens in which heating rods are inserted into the fl ux, do not let the temperature of fl ux adjacent to the rods exceed

480°C (900°F).

Recycling Flux Non-consumed fl ux may be collected from the fi nished weld and recycled. To do so, please follow these procedures:• Remove slag, metal, mill scale, and any other contaminants from the fl ux.• Prevent damage to the fl ux from heavy impingement in fl ux transport systems.• Avoid the separation of different sized particles in cyclones or “dead” corners.• Remove excess fi nes from recycled fl uxes.• For optimal welding characteristics, it is recommended to add at least 20% new fl ux by weight to recycled fl ux.
